Posted on September 25, 2012 by exmi

Three day weekends. Not as long as they could be, but longer than they should be. This weekend was long enough to look at another squillion houses. None of which tickled our fancy even a little bit. There’s a house … Continue reading →

Meet FredFredBurger. The fiance and I had him made while I was pregnant with The Kid. He’s of the Build-a-Bear variety and he came with a birth certificate and everything. His fur is soft, and inside his layers of stuffing, … Continue reading →

On My Kid, And How I Never Stop Learning From Him

Posted on May 25, 2012 by exmi

He woke up the other morning and declared “today is going to be the best day ever!” There was no particular reason for such enthusiasm so early in the morning. No explanation other than the fact that he’s still young … Continue reading →

On Recipes: Pizza From Scratch

Posted on May 7, 2012 by exmi

This recipe is one of my absolute favourites. It’s great for when you’ve got people over – make the bases and let them choose their own toppings and create their own pizza masterpieces. You could always buy pre-made bases, but … Continue reading →
